Isaiah 57:3 in context

Isaiah 57:1–6

1

The righteous perish,

and no one lays it to heart.

Merciful men are taken away,

and no one considers that the righteous is taken away from the evil.

2

He enters into peace.

They rest in their beds,

each one who walks in his uprightness.

3
Selected verse

“But draw near here, you sons of a sorceress,

you offspring of adulterers and prostitutes.

4

Whom do you mock?

Against whom do you make a wide mouth

and stick out your tongue?

Aren’t you children of disobedience

and offspring of falsehood,

5

you who inflame yourselves among the oaks,

under every green tree;

who kill the children in the valleys,

under the clefts of the rocks?

6

Among the smooth stones of the valley is your portion.

They, they are your lot.

You have even poured a drink offering to them.

You have offered an offering.

Shall I be appeased for these things?
